Useful tips for Homemade Applesauce

Be prepared for your house to smell like heaven.

Use honey crisp apples, if possible. They're the best for applesauce.

And, don't laugh at the naked apples. Just peel 'em and move on.

Slice and core. The apple slicer is still, pound for pound, a top five kitchen tool.

Here's one I use.

I grew up with the prepackaged, perfectly consistent applesauce. So 30 seconds on variable speed 5 in my Vitamix did the trick.

Or blend a little less and serve it chunky.

Oh yeah: And here's it as a side dish with latkes!

Apple sauce next to sour cream.
